Rudy Giuliani will not be taking part in the president’s defense in the Senate trial for his second impeachment, the New York Times reports.
“Mr. Trump met with Mr. Giuliani on Saturday night at the White House, and the next day the president began telling people that Mr. Giuliani was not going to be part of the team. It is unclear who will be a defense lawyer for Mr. Trump, given that many attorneys have privately said they won’t represent him.”
